This year's Oscar nominees are in, with Mica Levi, Dustin O'Halloran and Hauschka, Justin Timberlake, and Lin-Manuel Miranda among the musical names nominated.
Levi is up for her work on Natalie Portman-starring biopic Jackie while O'Halloran and German neo-classical experimentalist Hauschka are recognised for their Lion score. Justin Timberlake gets a nod for "Can't Stop The Feeling".
As expected, romantic musical La La Land dominates the categories, with two songs up for Best Original Song.
Best Original Song
- La La Land - Audition
- La La Land - City of Stars
- Moana - How Far I'll Go
- Jim: The James Foley Story - The Empty Chair
- Trolls - Can't Stop The Feeling
Best Original Score
- Lion - Dustin O’Halloran and Hauschka
- La La Land - Justin Hurwitz
